    We might even get lucky with Liverpool and Spuds being poor but I can't remember the last time we played this badly for such a long period of time..

    Said it before and will say it again - Santi does not want to be an Arsenal player and it show as clear as daylight.

    We need to stick with those that love the club (warts ''n) all and **** off anyone that doesn't, because passion is equal to technique when the going gets tough.

    More frustrated as to why we didn't bring our 2nd half performance in the first. We completely neutered them in the 2nd. Why play like absolute dross in the first when we all saw the performance we could dish out in the 2nd. At least the almost comeback helps our GD

    I'm starting to wonder if we're becoming a second half team. We looked light years better when we went down and came out for the second half. Wenger needs to get his players more focussed/drilled, so they get out the blocks quicker.

    The problem is Wenger has no idea how to fire up and motivate a side.

    He's soo ****ing timid.

    This was another tactically clueless performance.

    Now that's what i would call a poor Arsenal. stoke deserved the 3 points and Arsen needs to get back to the drawing board and figure out how to beat so called lesser clubs like stoke and Swansea. You have to beat teams like these to be up there challenging Chelsea and man city.

    Loads of teams playing badly at the moment, I really hope Southampton can cheer us all up.

    ENOUGH. I know we're all pissed but stop insulting each other FFS. You can criticize each other without resulting to petty insults. Save that for ArsenalFanTV.
    The first half performance was shocking and people rightfully should be incensed about it.

    That is the problem. He assumes that the players will go out and play at a constantly good level, the problem is players will sometimes coast and lower their intensity. You would expect better from a team on 3 wins and consecutive clean sheets....

    Ah don't worry. We will be missing a few too. Di maria is out.

    Rooney is back though.

    I was looking at their players and thought, how can we be 3 down to these guys. Barring Bojan, they aren't special at all. I guess Hughes has got them playing above their level.

    Yup whereas Ferguson and Moureen know how to spark their teams into life Wenger leaves it entirely down to the players.

    Its quite clear Wenger doesn't have a drawing board,and what your referring to is called organisation and he doesn't have a clue about that either so we are screwed on both counts.
